My thought exactly.  That is why I elevate this problem to the level
of mystery.

Absolutely. OK, so I used XP Windows Explorer to do a FIND on *.jar
throughout my c:\ drive. Now, my source files are in ...\bs28d and my
\dist directory is under another directory called b28d (note absence
of the "s"). In \dist there is found b28d.jar, and that is the ONLY
copy of the binary on the c:\ drive. Moreover, I had created a new
class file called NewClass.java in the same package with the
BSMainFrame.java file. After compiling I used jarlook to see inside
of b28d.jar. Sure enough, NewClass.class is in there.
